17 By faith Abraham, being tried, offered up Isaac: yea, he that had gladly received the promises was offering up his only begotten son; 18 even he to whom it was said, In Isaac shall thy seed be called: 19 accounting that God is able to raise up, even from the dead; from whence he did also in a figure receive him back.

17 Per fede Abrahamo, essendo provato, offerse Isacco; e colui che avea ricevute le promesse offerse il suo unigenito.

18 Egli, dico, a cui era stato detto: In Isacco ti sarà nominata progenie.

19 Avendo fatta ragione che Iddio era potente eziandio da suscitarlo da’ morti; onde ancora per similitudine lo ricoverò.
